This is a really cute and simple book, which goes nicely with the “Here’s the Church, Here’s the Steeple” finger rhyme. The church or chapel which the bear family goes to is very old-fashioned looking, so it may not be entirely familiar to kids. However, the activities should be the same: reading the Bible, singing, going to Sunday School, acting out a Bible story, drawing pictures, etc.

Though this book doesn’t contain any real spiritual lessons, I wouldn’t hesitate to use it in a classroom if I wanted to teach the children the “Here’s the Church, Here’s the Steeple” finger rhyme. I think it would work well in that context with younger children.
